“Alicia was very knowledgeable and gave a lot of applicable tools to help us get started (on our scripts). She did a great job breaking down structure and also laying out different processes. The class was very well paced.”
“The way Alicia presents the material is so organized and clear; her slides could be published as a TV writing book. She has watched everything and can pull examples and talk in depth about various aspects of all of them. Really, I am blown away by this class and I have taken many writing classes now.”
“She's so skilled at bringing her expertise to the class, making the class fun and the concepts accessible with relevant examples, and giving great feedback on your work, and encouraging participation, etc. Alicia's the best!”
“This class felt like a really good value. She presented a lot of information in a short amount of time. I appreciate that she did not waste a moment of class time. The information was well presented and easy to understand. And receiving the slides and supplementary materials is so so helpful.”
“She is well-prepared, clearly has vast knowledge and experience on the subject and was able to give concrete examples that the class could follow. Alicia knows her stuff and communicates it well! I have an MFA in Screenwriting from UCLA and this class is already light years ahead of most of the TV classes I took there.”
“She equipped us with so much helpful information and was very thoughtful, tailoring anything to what we wanted/needed. She was really great! Alicia's class was the perfect intro and inspiration to get me focused on my pilot.”
“Alicia is a PHENOMENAL teacher. She's extremely smart, interesting, engaging - excellent at every aspect of teaching. It is truly amazing how much I learned from her classes.”
“Another Writing Pad superstar!!! Alicia exudes such an infectious love for the TV medium and for teaching! She explains every aspect of series structure so exactingly. Her instruction and insights are so fierce that in real time it generated ideas for application on my current pilot. I was busy making glorious notes for my pilot draft and trying to keep up at the same time! The three hours flew by so fast. Her powerpoint presentation and a trove of resources (including pilot scripts) emailed immediately at the workshop conclusion is amaze-balls par excellence!”
“She equipped us with so much helpful information and was very thoughtful, tailoring anything to what we wanted/needed. ”
“You could tell she spent time outside of class reading our homework and gave us wonderful feedback. Homework assignments were explained well.”
“I love that Alicia's presentations are so clear and broken up into digestible pieces. I also appreciate how open she is to stopping and answering questions, as well as the thoroughness of her follow-up. This is my second class with Alicia and her level of teaching suits me so well.”
“Alicia was able to communicate and deliver an immense amount of information in a way that was both informative and exciting. She is passionate and you can feel that from the outset!”
“Alicia broke down the concepts simply so those of us who've never written for TV could readily understand everything.”
